This picture taken early in morning, two hours after sunrise, in it castle "Resinghe" forest in Maldegem. The colours are very beautiful through the trees, I like this wonderful nature, after the summer come the autumn with fog and rain, but all seasons have them lovely colours.
With backlight always very difficult taken suchlike pictures.

Hi John, the image is really beautiful , a really nice composition - good to have caught such a good spread of the light. I think for me the saturation of the colours is just a little too strong to my taste though, not much, it is a fine thing.

Hi John,
really a nice picture!
Are the colors real, or a result of post proc. ? The red of the sunrays is amazing!
Compliments, a result of great effect! I have tryed many times to shot in these situations, in the forest, but never with satisfactory results.
Very nice, thanx!
ciao, Giorgio

Hi John,
A difficult shot that you captured in so well your great style and experience. So wonderful with these beautiful sunrays in the forest. Fine luminosity, excelent colors and also a good angle of view.

Hi John.
The sunlight rays through the trees were very well captured. One of the most difficult picture to take is with the sun light against you, here you got very good results. Good work. Nice colours and contrasts.
Congratulation.

Ahhh! Another priceless forest photo from you, John! Very good, I really like the rays of the sun coming out from the center! I also like how you included the pathway, as the viewer can relate on your strolls along the forest! very good colors and sharpness! rgds.

Hi John, what a stunning photo. I love seeing the sun's rays shing through the trees, and the red plants seem to shine as they reflect the sunlight too. An excellent composition, very well done, thank you.

Mr John Maenhout you rascal! Whay are you punishing me with glorious lighting in the woods. Its no fair for me to have to be at work early while you wander in the woods so joyfully snapping photos of dynamic light bursting through trees and then posting it so every one on Trek finds out that your photos become so famous! I have to get a job on afternoon shift so I can get up early every morning. Arrrggghhh!!!
I love this John! . Its magical in evey way. Cheers ~ Paul~

Hi John!
I found this splendid shot among your works (BTW, the idea of Best Photos included is nice, I have something like that as well).
Lovely rays and saturated colours, these reddish bunches are particularly fine.
Regards,
